Savarkar Defamation Case | Pune Court Orders Personal Appearance Of Rahul Gandhi On December 2

Live Law  

A Special Court in Pune, on Tuesday ordered Rahul Gandhi to remain present before it on December 2, to attend the proceedings of the defamation complaint filed against him for allegedly defaming late right-wing leader Vinayak Savarkar by making objectionable comments against him in a speech he delivered in the United Kingdom. Special MP/MLA court Judge Amol Shinde had in October, issued summons to Gandhi to appear before the court personally so as to answer the charge under section 500 of the Indian Penal Code initiated against him by Satyaki Savarkar, the grandnephew of Savarkar. On Tuesday, advocate Sangram Kolhatkar representing Savarkar informed the court that despite Gandhi's office receiving the summons, the Congress leader chose not to appear before the court and obey the summons. The complainant has claimed that Gandhi made intentionally wild allegations against Savarkar, knowing them to be untrue, with the intention of harming Savarkar's reputation and causing mental agony to the complainant and his family.
